I am about to buy an awesome gaming PC. I was wondering would it be better to get a LIGHTING edition GTX 770 or a GAMING edition GTX 770. Also I know LIGHTING edition has a power reactor but it is not important for me, I am looking for better performance and better features and technologies.

P.S. I will use this computer without overclocking, only for gaming and a little bit of 3D programing, also price does not matter I only want to know which is better and which one has better features.

Your question is a little contradictory...

From those two GPUs the better is the Lightning, have better PWM, more phase power, more overclock headroom and extreme profiles for high overclocks under air.

Now, you say that overclock isn't important for you so, in that way the best option would be the Gaming series BUT that model doesn´t have all the Lightning features, features that you maybe not use since you don't want overclock the GPU (at least, not now). The lightning also have higher clocks than the gaming model.

I have a GTX 680 Lightning but that is because I do overclock, in you case, I think that is better the gaming model (including the 50 USD price difference) because with the Lightning you will get features that maybe you never use.
